Service Engineering Models
(2019)
Since the field of service engineering emerged in the late 20th century, the service industry has undergone drastic changes. Among the reasons for these changes is the increasing digitalization, which has made it difficult for companies to successfully develop new service offerings. While numerous service engineering models are available to provide guidance during the design of new services, many of them cannot keep up with the requirements of today’s economic environment. The present paper examines the requirements that service engineering models need to meet in order to be suitable guidelines for the digital age. To this end, the introduction illustrates how digitalization has changed the service industry. Afterwards, selected service engineering models and related norms are presented. Finally, a set of requirements for modern service engineering models derived from best practices from recent years is introduced.
This chapter addresses the market launch and sales of smart services. It opens with an introduction of the new challenges that the market launch of smart services creates for companies. Then follows the discussion of a four-phase approach to the market launch of smart services. Subsequently, successful practices are presented for this approach along eight design fields of the market launch. [https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-030-58182-4_8]
Towards a Methodology to Determine Intersubjective Data Values in Industrial Business Activities
(2021)
This paper contributes to a valuation framework for valuing data as an intangible asset. Especially those industrial manufacturers developing and delivering holistic digital solutions are limited in calculating the true business value of data initiatives. Since the value of data is strongly dependent on the respective use case, a completely objective valuation is not possible. This complicates decision-making on the internal side regarding investments in digital transformation, and on the external side to communicate existing benefits to third parties via financial reporting. Therefore, the target is to design a valuation framework that allows industrial manufacturers to determine an intersubjective, i.e., traceable and transparent, data value. In order to develop a framework that can be applied in practice, the approach is based on industrial case study research.
This paper contributes to an assessment framework for valuing data as an asset. Particularly industrial manufacturers developing and delivering Smart Product Service Systems (Smart PSS) are comprehensively depended on the business value derived by processing data. However, there is a lack in a framework for capturing and comparing the Smart PSS data value with the purpose of increasing the accountability of data initiatives. Therefore a qualitative data value assessment approach was developed and specified on Smart PSS, based on an industrial case study research.

„Promovieren? Promovieren!" Mit diesem Slogan wirbt das FIR an der RWTH Aachen in seinen Stellenanzeigen für die industrienahe Promotion am Forschungsinstitut. Was junge Hochschulabsolvent:innen der Ingenieur- und Wirtschaftswissenschaften dazu motiviert, diesen Weg zu gehen, welche Erfahrungen sie am FIR machen und welche Perspektiven die Mitarbeit sowie die Promotion am FIR für ihre zukünftige Karriere eröffnet, beantworteten Dr. Jana Frank, ehemals Bereichsleiterin Dienstleistungsmanagement am FIR und heute 'Country Business Head' für Singapur und Malaysia bei der Henkel AG & Co. KGaA sowie Antoine Gaillard, seit Februar 2022 wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter des FIR an der RWTH Aachen im Bereich Produktionsmanagement.
Durch den Einsatz additiver Fertigungsverfahren werden Wertschöpfungsketten zu Wertschöpfungsnetzwerken in denen produzierende Unternehmen, industrielle Dienstleister sowie Softwareanbieter auf digitalen Plattformen kooperieren. Die Arbeitsteilung zwischen Produzenten, Zulieferern und Dienstleistern sowie die zugrundeliegenden Geschäftsmodelle unterliegen einem radikalen Wandel. Dabei müssen die Veränderungen vor allem als Potenzial für neue Geschäftsmodelle genutzt werden. An dieser Stelle setzt das Forschungsvorhaben 'Add2Log' an.
Electricity generated by wind turbines (WT) is a mainstay of the transition to renewable energy. In order to economically utilize WT is, operating and maintenance costs, which account for 25% of total electricity generation costs in onshore WT’s, are a focus of cost reduction activities. Implementing a data-driven prescriptive maintenance approach is one way to achieve this. So far, various approaches for prescriptive maintenance for onshore WT’s have been suggested.
However, little research has addressed the practical implementation considering sociotechnical aspects. The aim of this paper is therefore to identify success factors for the successful implementation of such a maintenance strategy with clear and holistic guidance on how existing knowledge on prescriptive maintenance from science can be transferred to business practice. These recommendations are developed through case study research and classified in the four structural areas of Acatech’s Industry 4.0 Maturity Index: Resources, Information Systems, Organizational Structure and Culture.
